mysql5, mysql5-server, inkscape are built from source
Hi all. I am upgrading mysql5 and mysql5-server from 5.1.68_0 to 5.1.70_0. I noticed that MacPorts is building them from source. Since I am on Snow Leopard with default configuration and using default variants, I thought MacPorts would download a prebuilt archive. Is this expected? Also, if I remember correctly, inkscape has always been built from source. Why isn't there a prebuilt package? Thanks in advance. Best regards.

Pardon me if I'm slightly amused by what they've done. Homebrew (in contrast to MP) is all about using what's bundled with the system -- right? From the link above: We can prevent a good deal of breakage, and it ensures that Homebrew uses the same executables that the compiler sees (and not those bundled with the system). - Eric ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users

Unfortunately, I need version 5.1.XX for a couple of projects. You may still wish to use the mysql51 and mysql51-server ports then; they supersede the mysql5 and mysql5-server ports. ___ macports-users mailing list macports-users@lists.macosforge.org https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-users
